State of California Special Warning:
Warning:
This product contains a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer and/or birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
WARNING!
Some dust created by power sanding sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known (to the State of California)
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
•
lead from lead-based paints,
•
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
•
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in
a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
